[REL] PleXBMC
I'm having issues with the Confluence modified skin (skin.confluence.plexbmc-0.4.4). I get a "Dependencies not met" error when trying to install it from zip and the folloeing in the log:
11:34:11 T:3860 ERROR: Texture manager unable to load file: C:\Users\<user>\Downloads\skin.confluence.plexbmc-0.4.4.zip\icon.png

skin.quartzV3.plexbmc-v0.7.2 installs and works fine though. Any ideas?

My setup:
Win7 Ultimate x64
XBMC 12 R3
Plex Media Server 0.9.7.10

Thanks

Are the skins up to date for the newest version of the plugin to Eden?

Not particularly up to date. Everyone seems to be using PleXBMC with Frodo, so there has been more activity to get this going so it's ready when it gets released.

Is there any skin in particular you were thinking of?

Oh! i ment Frodo! Which skins are frodo compatible and has the whole library integration? Confluence?

quick question, im trying to run 3.04 on a raspbmc (latest rc version) to connect to a Plex server 0.9.7.7 on a windows box, ive used the registry key to removal all external security so I can access it easily without myplex username and password, connectivity is fine from every thing else I've tried ios and web and also roku client, but the plexbmc client will only show the top level folders ie the folders I have added directly if I click into any of them to see the contents I get nothing the timer spins for a few secs then leaves me with the same folder view as before, any ideas?

thanks

That confluence is from, I believe, Dharma and isn't compatible with Frodo yet. I'm looking to mod up the horizontal confluence when I have time.

I don't have a windows PMS to check unfortunately. If you turn on debug in the plexbmc addon settings and send me your xbmc.log file I can have a look. a spinning timer usually means that something isn't responding as it should.

PleXBMC Helper - v3.0.0 [Frodo]

This addon enables the iOS and Android offical Plex.apps to control PleXBMC. When enabled, the client will show up in the list and allows you to navigate around, stop and start playback. You can also start media playback and resume media playback. Needs PleXBMC 3.0.5 for full resume support.
  • Displays as a client in standard Plex applications (Register as a client to the local Plex Media server using GDM [multicast])
  • Allows Basic remote functionality (pause, stop, left, right, etc) [through the normal XBMC UDP service]
  • Initiate playback and resume from the plex app remote (script includes a small web interface between Plex HTTP commands and XBMC JSON)

Thanks a lot hippojay! Smile

Will there be a way to auto-update PleXBMC and PleXBMC Helper at some point?

PleXBMC Helper - 3.0.1 [Frodo]

When using this addon ,ensure that the webserver is enabled in XBMC under settings -> network -> webserver.
  • ADD: Set XBMC port, user and password. These values must match those set in settings -> network -> webserver.
  • FIX: Remove and hide some debug code - addon runs with less noise in log file.

Yes, I need to get the repo back up and running correctly - although I'm not a huge an of enforced upgrades (especially if they break something)

I'm running Frodo with the Aeon Nox 4.0 skin. What modifications are needed to integrate PleXBMC into this skin so it functions like your modified Quartz skin?

hippojay,

I get this error when trying to "remote play" an item on my iPhone to the PleXBMC Helper (both in v3.0.0 and 3.0.1):

Thanks a lot for this hippojay Smile

Sorry, yes you need to restart the service: either restarting xbmc or by disable/enable the service in addons -> enabled addons -> services -> script.plexbmc.helper.

hippojay,

After starting a movie from my iPhone (Plex iOS app), with PleXBMC as remote player (it runs direct streaming, not transcoding), is there any way to change subtitles, or do they have to be selected in the Plex iOS app before starting playback?

If they are embedded subtitles (i.e. in the actual movie file) then you should be able to change the selection after playback in the usual XBMC way ( bring up the player controls, navigate to audio and choose your language ). If they are external subtitles (for example a separate,srt file) then you won't be able to change them, as they need to be loaded from the media server.

Restart XBMC.

This is one of those intermittent errors and I have no idea what causes it. It seems to be an issue when passing the data to be processed - but I can see the dra is correct, yet the command fails. I've tried to hunt it down, but always fixes itself. It is a rare error though, which makes it all the more difficult to find.
